Season in focus
Newton Heath finished bottom of the First Division and were relegated, with Bob Donaldson’s 10 goals unable to offset six league wins. The campaign was the first major setback after entry to the Football League. It placed the club in Division Two and sharpened the financial pressures that would later force a change of ownership and name.
